this Scheme be made entirely self-supporting, numbers are
necessary, and I suggest that the patients might not be limited
as at present, to adults attending the Welfare Clinic only, but
be extended to include all deserving cases.
The Beckenham Urban District Education Committee
would then have a system of Dentistry established which

parts of the mechanical work in this connection, and I suggest that
there is plenty of work to justify the appointment of a whole-time
Dental Mechanic on the spot, thus adding to the efficiency of the
Service.

me great pleasure, and I have received generous support from all
those with whom I have been connected in my position as Dental
Surgeon.
I trust I have given complete satisfaction and I hope that this
Report will prove of value as well as of interest.
